Dream a Little Dream of Me.

"ALPHABET: that palpable, palatable palette; that telltale ‘blah blah blah’…" --@lukebradford.bsky.social

"AT WHOSE SHELTERING SHALL THE DAY SEA

At whose sheltering shall the day sea
Captain his ships of foam to save
Them weary of air, their hair gently
Afloat above them on prongs of water?
Now, prince in the seacircling tower,
Emigrant to grief, furious seafarer swept over
The seven wounds and multiple five
Senses of drowning; he fills his voice
With land-dry prayers and the sea above.
His ‘help’ or ‘save me’ like a bird
Bore back only the stretched whitefingered
Hand of the swelling sea and found him sheltered,
Sheltered in soon all of us to be
That memory against the scuppering rocks,
The spilling aprons of the sea.
Grief fills the voice with water, building
Ruin on the ruining land. Sheltering
In sea he breathes dry land, dry grave and dwelling."

--W S Graham

"If a nurse tries to book a shift, the app contacts a data broker and attempts to determine whether that nurse has a lot of credit card debt and whether it’s delinquent. If it is, the nurse gets offered a lower wage because people who have imminent debt are more likely to accept a lower wage."
